Perform the movements before each workout to mobilize your joints and
activate your muscles.
Should a movement be uncomfortable or painful, skip this movement and
consult your doctor or fitness instructor about suitable warm-up movements.
Each movement should be repeated (right and left) so that you can start the
cardio training relaxed.
Take about 5 minutes to do the following CapitalSports training routine:
1. Tilt the head sideways, slowly alternating from right to left. Then mobilize
your shoulders (circular movements and shrugging the shoulders).
2. Turn the hips while the arms are stretched out. The feet are not firmly
fixed to the ground (the ankles follow the body’s rotation).
3. Bend to the side and raise one arm straight up. Stay in this position for
several seconds on each side.
4. Bend to the side and raise both arms above your head with palms together.
Again, remain on each side for several seconds. The exercise is now a bit
more intense with the second arm joining.
5. Stand on one leg and hold the instep of the other foot with your hand.
Mobilize it so as to stretch the thigh lightly. If necessary, hold onto
something to keep your balance. Stand on one leg and trace a circle with
your foot in the air in both directions (counter clockwise and clockwise).
6. Put one leg forward and with your arms support the weight of your upper
body on your thigh. Position your legs so as to provide a stretch for the
rear leg’s calf muscles.
7. Repeat the previous exercise with more distance between your feet. The
stretch will now be more intense.
8. Bend forward while keeping your legs straight and alternatingly touch
each hand to the opposite foot. Finally, let yourself hang down and relax.
